1) I never said the typeface has anything to do with
Your plates, I was mearly illustrating the point that something as insignificant as this can get you 3 points and £60.
2) I take it the answer is no then, you haven't had it MOT'd with these plates.
3) The front numberplate must must be visible
in every area of the plate in normal daylight conditions from a distance of between 18 metres and 22 metres (diagonally measured in a relevant square). Also, as Tom said it must be mounted vertically, or if not practical, as close to the vertical as possible.
4) Rear plates must also be mounted vertically (see above) and must be lit so as to be visible at night from a diagonal relevant distance of between 15 and 18 metres in every part of the plate

Not saying your car doesn't comply, just that having the plate under the wipers under the windscreen it can't and get someone in a bad mood and you could pay heavily. The max penalties for incorrect display of a numberplate can be upto £1000 and possible withdrawl of the registration by the DVLA.
